<h1>Adding objects from the Report Objects list</h1>
<p>The Report Objects list, which is a part of the Object Browser, displays 
 a list of all the objects to which you have access that are included in 
 the report definition. They may or may not all currently appear on the 
 report.</p>
<ul type="disc" class="whs1">
	
<li class=p><p>Objects in the Report Objects list that are being used 
 on the report are displayed in gray. </p></li>
	
<li class=p><p>Objects in the Report Objects list &nbsp;that 
 are not currently being used on the report are displayed in black.</p></li>
</ul>
<p>If you add a prompt to your report, you will be required to answer the 
 prompt when you save the report. If you select <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Save 
 report as prompted </B></span>when you save the report, any subsequent times 
 you open the report (in Editable or View mode), you will have to answer 
 the prompt. Also, if you edit a prompted report and add another prompt 
 to it, you will have to answer any prompts that you added during this 
 session when you save the report. For more information about saving a 
 report, see 
<a href="Save_reports_and_objects.htm">Saving reports</a>. 
 For more information about prompts, see 
<a href="Creating_prompts.htm">About 
 prompts</a>.</p>
<p>If your report contains prompts, the first time you save the report 
 you must answer the prompt. Each subsequent time you open the report in 
 editable mode, you must answer the prompt before the report opens. If 
 you add additional prompts to the report, when you save, you will answer 
 the prompts that you added during this editing session only.</p>
